DomNH Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Camping out by the floodlight now. Dendrites have gotten a lot better and the snow has picked up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boston-winter08 Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Area won't see amounts like that though just due to the fact it won't pivot overhead like it did for Jersey yeah, but it might be one of those "snowicane" scenarios similar to Dec. 9 (2006?) when the storm practically formed an eye with snow rates of 5 or 6" per hour (not saying it will be that intense, but with this storm bombing out, I think that's where potential lies) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weathafella Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 I think the beat back at BOS is real: KBOS 270308Z 01016G31KT 1/2SM R04R/2400V4000FT SN FZFG BKN004 BKN007 OVC010 M01/M02 A2927 RMK AO2 PK WND 01031/0302 TWR VIS 1 1/4 P0001 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Collinsville Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 I dunno... I think I could still pull off a foot. Satellite loop does show some of the colder cloud tops moving east a bit. I dunno though. Yeah, we're gonna get a little burst here shortly that will probably add 4-5 but that's on top of the failed start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherwiz Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 We also have the 850/700mb lows which look to track just SE of our area sometime over the course of the next several hours and there is a ton of lift with them...great frotogenesis and convergence...as those continue to track to the NE hopefully that stuff to our SW pivots this way...have to watch that.

Clinch Leatherwood Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Correction, Randolph Just measured 11.8" here at the back of my d-way. Hard to measure with drifts. Easton Sharon border about 10.9" as of 10pm. That'll be the last report I get for the night. 1000-850mb clown maps which have done a pretty good job of pinpointing the non-accumulating to accumulating frozen precip pushes back NW for a few more hours. Hovers right around Rte 24 until after 4am..just on the west side someone is getting smoked. Kudos to the models they hammered out this snow hole pretty good to the west and east of the major QPF bands. Can we just have one snowstorm this year that passes NW of the BM with a huge comma head of snow for everyone? Just 1. Been far too long. Phil is right not sure why the Nh/ME crew is off the ship, plenty of snow coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H2Otown_WX Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 This was surprisingly well modeled on the 12z meso-scale models. The WRF nailed this band in eastern NY/Berkshires region...with a hole over central MA and CT. MM5 also nailed this. Agreed..I was really hoping the other meso model would be right. Oh well.

dendrite Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 sleet mixing in all the way up here north of Concord NH. Oy vay. No way. Those snow pellets were awesome. Totally convective in nature. That little 35-40dbZ cell that went through your area and then mine moved due north amidst the northwesterly moving bands. I measured some of them...some were over 1/4" in diamater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibbsfreeenergy Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 lol +BLSN here right now. How exciting. I've seen even crazy wind gusts to 40-50 and lost power for a bit. Sure it's impressive, but I still would rather wake up to 16+ inches of snow and I just don't see that. I think upton had upped forecast to 22 in my area. Going to need deformation band over NJ and NY to do something miraculous to get to those amounts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

40/70 Benchmark Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Harvey Len says that those heavy cells in Southeastern NY and northern NJ will come in here. Sure, but they won't pivot over us. This will be a major, wonderful event, but there are reasons why the ones on hallowed ground are as such....everything needs to evolve perfectly and that hasn't happened for us.

Clinch Leatherwood Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 It could heat up near BOS in the nest few hours. Look at that stuff along the s coast. Been modeled to heat up in Boston for the last day from here to roughly 12-15z. Amazing clarity in the models on that. Going to rock there hopefully as snow, no question about it! Back along the classic south shore areas should be epic hopefully to ray, maybe back into RI and Bob too...cape ann. Probably going to be some mix on the east side next few hours though. Getting there. We have the winds. Now I just need the +SN 1/4mi vis. Temp? My guess is it will be near or over you...if not just NE. Check out the water vapor, that's what sucks. http://www.rap.ucar.edu/weather/satellite/displaySat.php?region=ALB&itype=wv&size=large&endDate=20101227&endTime=-1&duration=5 What a monstrosity, if it was only 100 miles east this would have been a blizzard for all time in SNE not just a snowstorm. This banding over us is consolidating. If it keeps up, I'm going to book some very big totals... All I'd worry about is temps Weathafella, it's coming, will stay 6-10 hours.
